Please make sure that if you're not doing the standard book/bookmark/tote that you craft for eachother equally. I, the organizer, will not be held responsible if one partner recieves a lot more than the other. So please, Communicate With Your Partner!

Ideas for other book-related items you could make:*Book cozies *Book ends*Wallet (for your library card to have a home of course )*A secret book (aka the inside is hallowed out so you can put stuff in it)*A mini book on a necklace*Something (eg. magnets) with quotes/pictures from books*Anything else your heart desires

Also remember to read the Swap Info Guide to find out how to ship your item and other details about participating in a swap.

note: I've noticed that three reading rainbow swaps have been recorded in the feedback list, but I can only find two on craftster. If an organizer from a previous swap filled out the feedback incorrectly, this could very well be the 3rd Reading Rainbow swap, but I'm going to go with what I see and call it the 4th

I've swtiched the yes to no on all the forms I've recieved so far, and vise versa.

If anyone who answered both questions would actually only have liked to answer one, but got confused about the wording, tell me which to zap

I was feeling lazy and I figured someone else would let ya' know! And, you can leave my answers as they are...If I get partnered with someone who is set on making me the totebag/bookmark or with someone who wants to make something else, I'll be happy either way!
